They never say a good word about anybody you've ever heard of. Everything is corruption and oppression and class warfare and exploitation and crass conumerism etc. etc. etc. That's what it takes for them. So you know it means something that even the Socialists loved Johnny Cash.

Cash’s sound in these years is infused with the confidence of a booming post-WWII America and the emergence of a young and restless working class.

Actually, they aren't so bad: they like Dave Van Ronk, Hank Snow, Dale Watson and Iris DeMent too. Biggups.
